And because it's Sweden Week in Blogland...

... and also because I haven't filled my quota of news about the future, (it takes longer on the wires) look what else those Swedes have been up to while we weren't looking: a self-assembling cottage on the moon.

"We know where the Americans want to land people in 2020... It would be nice if we had a house for them when they come," Mikael Genberg said.

Wishful thinking?

Seriously, though, this is pretty cool.

"But when we put this house on the Moon, which is a kind of Swedish endeavour right now, we want to make it an international symbol... it will represent the position of our own planet in the universe, like a fragile thing."
